What exactly is this technology we're invested in?

Thousands of OTC stocks to choose from. Why are we invested in SCIE in the first place? Sure, we know Spectra Science hold patents to some sort of device that gets shoved in the butt, but what exactly is 'it' doing when it's up there?

Some DD..

From SCIE website:
Quote:
Our proprietary WavSTAT Optical Biopsy System is used as an adjunct to the gastroenterologist in normal practice and is compatible with existing endoscopes. The WavSTAT uses Laser Induced Fluorescence and an optical fiber forceps to transmit laser light via endoscope to the tissue. Auto-fluorescence back from the interrogated tissue is collected and returned to an optical detector for analysis and a definitive diagnostic rendered. The WavSTAT provides a binary, "Suspect" or "Non-Suspect" diagnostic output which, unlike traditional image-based systems, requires no analysis or interpretation.



Doesn't really tell us what 'Laser Induced Fluorescence' does in simple terms..

As you see, the WavSTAT4 isn't emitting simple 'light bulb light' from a 60-watt bulb. Instead, it uses a laser (very low energy) which emits energy that gets absorbed by the polyp. Just like the demonstration above shows, a cancerous polyp will absorb the laser light differently than a non-cancerous polyp (like the different fluids). This difference is examined by the WavSTAT4 software and determined to be either "Suspect" or "Non-Suspect".

The nice thing about the WavSTAT4 is if a polyp is found to be suspect, it can be removed right there on the spot.

Quote:
If the signal is red (suspect tissue), biopsy forceps attached to the optical probe can be closed to take an immediate tissue biopsy, or simply remove the observed polyp.
